Printing an **iPhone accessory** seems to be a normal thing around **Thingiverse**. When I stumbled across [Boardofdenver](http://www.thingiverse.com/Boardofdenver/designs)'s original, whilst looking for iPhone cases, I thought it was clever. **Damn clever**.
There however were **three problems** I found with the design:
* It would take up to *8 hours* for my **MakerBot Thing-O-Matic** to print.
* It had so much **extraneous plastic** both for support and in the object itself.
* The **cord wraps** on the back were difficult to print; requiring more support (wasted plastic) and useless in the mount if it were be designed so the cord would wrap around the plug.
I set a few **goals for my redesign**:
* **Reduce** the amount of plastic used in the stand by at least **40%**
* **Reduce** the amount of support required to print the pieces.
* **Cut** the print into two parts allowing for simpler printing.
I'm happy to say I *delivered* after **13 hours of
